MDMA Addiction and Rehab

General Information:

MDMA is also called liquid ecstasy, which is one
of the main ingredients found in ecstasy. The drug was created during World War
II to reduce hunger among soldiers and to lose weight. MDMA mainly affects
serotonin - a neurotransmitter in our brains that is usually responsible for
appetite, sleep, memory, mood, and learning.
MDMA intensifies sensations of taste, touch, etc. It also alters old
understandings of what people observe, and allows them to feel distant from themselves.
Some users experience self-insights and closer emotional attachment to other
persons.

The intake of MDMA takes you in a state of
vertigo and enhances your sensory feeling. Also as the drug was introduced to
reduce the food intake of soldiers - MDMA causes loss of appetite. It also causes
insomnia among the users and makes them highly energetic during any physical
activities such as dancing, since it is a club drug. But, once the
“high”starts to wear off, the user might feel exhausted. Apart from the visible effects, MDMA is also
noted to cause anaemia, jaw clenching and grinding, as well as excessive tooth wear. The
drug also boosts the pulse rate but as the high starts to wear off, a person’s
BP falls below the required readings. In the long run, MDMA can also cause
feelings of anxiety, depression, paranoia, irritability, and memory loss.

Drug Specific Withdrawal Symptoms

Physicians treating MDMA overdose have also found that water can worsen dangerous effects. MDMA taken with antidepressants can produce excessive blood pressure, heavy sweating, muscle tics, and rigidity - these effects may-be very fatal for the abuser. Taking this drug with HIV/AIDS medication can also be very dangerous.
